Routine General/Rate each other's routine

No routine thread in catalog.
Been lifting with fuckarounditis after i hit intermediate level (still made gains, no ragrets).
Kinda playing with this as a PPL split

Push
2x4-6 bench (double progression)
2x8-10 bench
2x4-6 ohp
2x8-10 ohp
4x6-10 landmine press
4 sets side lat raise (alternating between heavy (4-6) and light (25-30))

Pull:
2x5 weighted pull up/ chin up (alternating each training session)
2x10 same as above
3x6-10 yate's row
3x6-10 one arm row
2x5 deadlift

Lower
2x4-6 hip thrust
2x10-15 hip thrust
2x6-8 calf raise
2x15 calf raise
2xF forearm roller
3xF reverse wrist curl
Barbell complex (cardio)

Every other push day i do ohp first instead of bench

I do 2 heavy sets then 2 lighter sets, because i feel i still get the same amount of strength adaptation (at least according to my lifts continuing to progress), and when I calculate the volume (setsxrepsxload) i get more this way.

I try to do double progression, but very often i will add weight and stay at the same rep range, just depending on my mood.

Not sure how i want to space out the frequency.
Maybe PPLXPPLXX

cable rows are GOAT, same with dips and incline bench. might think about including them over your other accessories.
>No squat, leg press, or quad work of any kind
dropped


A x B x A xx
B x A x B xx

Day A:
Snatch grip hanging high pulls: 4 x 5
Weighted dip: 4 x 8
Squat: 4 x 8
Seated cable row: 4 x 12
Seated DB press: 3 x 12
Hammer curl: 3 x 15

Day B:
Power cleans: 5 x 3 (sets across)
Push press: 5 x 3 (sets across)
Squat: 6 x 4 (@ 60% 1rm)
Chinup: 4 x 8
Dips: 3 x 15
BB curl: 3 x 10

Trying to make a short full body workout I can do 3x a week where the actual workout doesnt take too long. Obviously focusing more on hypertrophy and tut than strength.
once I can hit the prescribed rep goals, then I move up on the weight. Everything is meant to be slow and controlled eccentric and explosive concentric.

How is this for a Greyskull routine?

Day 1: OHP, Chinups, Squat
Day 2: Bench, Curls, Deadlift
Day 3: OHP Chinups Squat

then keep Deadlift and Squat on fixed days and alternate with the OHP/Bench and Chinups/Curls so the second weeks would look like:

Day 1: Bench, Curls, Squat
Day 2: OHP, Chinups, Deadlift
Day 3: Bench, Curls, Squat

in addition I want to use Jons Frequency Method for bodyweight Chinups and bodyweight Pushups, so 6 days a week, 6 sets of 6-8 reps a day for chins and 6 sets of 10 for pushups.

does this sound like a good plan or am I missing something?

Doing a reddit routine. Wish me luck lads.

nSuns knows his shit, you'll be good.

Finally settled on GSLP after trying SL and SS and getting no shit done.
Reasonably happy with this.

Sat/Sun rest

Yeah its good.

No squat because my thighs chafe together with a leg pump (at sub 15%) and i am half t-rex.
No desire to build leg mass

I am not a fan of cable rows, as i cant go heavy without cheating. Sometimes i like seal rows.

Landmine press > power gap > incline
Dem delt gaynz, son.

Please be memeing and not retarded

Fuck the dips and tricep pushdowns, focus on hitting your delt and pec MRV and tricep strength will come.
Otherwise 10/10

Did you skip me on purpose?

I am , what exactly do you mean?

ABxABAx

How does it look? I'm adding weight twice weekly.

Also consider alternating between yate's and pendlay

Three best vids on rows, imo

You didnt rate my routine. Now I feel secluded.

PC & PP stands for power clean and push press, which I forgot to mention.

I dont think you meant to quote me m8, I'm the guy with the greyskull routine, not the one who rated.

Treating curls as a main lift?
I literally thought you were mocking me for not squatting.

I have literally never done arm isolations in my life and my arms are proportionally overdeveloped.

If you chin up 1.5x bw, and row 1xbw you will have bicep mass.

Your entire back musculature can handle and requires more training volume than your smaller arm muscles.

Isolating arms are for roiders

If you DO decide to curl, treat it as an accessory, not a main lift

GSLP + chins + flyes. Done in ~45m. Next additions will be calves and delt raises.

what the hell are you on about? greyskull has squats 2 times every week. and curls are right there in the program, and added as "plug-ins", not main lifts.

Nah nigga im drunk (also not black, so don't sperg out on me, /pol/niggers)
Looks like a decent enough u/l split to try if intermediate.

Ime some routines look good on paper but not in practice (different people handle different VIF ratios better or worse, because recovery and genedicks and such).
But this looks good enough to try running for a good 4-8 week mesocycle and see how you respond.

Thanks satan.

Im a noob, rate my routine please

Day 1:
Incline bench - 4 sets 15 reps
Dips - 4 sets 15 reps
Cable crossover flyes - 4 sets 15 reps
Dumbbell pullovers - 4 sets 15 reps
barbell curls - 4 sets 15 reps
hammer curls - 4 sets 15 reps
ab pulldowns - 4 sets 15 reps

Day 2 rest

Day 3:
leg press - 4 sets 15 reps
cable crossover flyes - 4 sets 15 reps
leg extensions - 4 sets 15 reps
dumbbell lunges - 4 sets 15 reps
low pulley lateral raises - 4 sets 15 reps
upright rows - 4 sets 15 reps
seated dumbell press - 4 sets 15 reps

Day 4 rest

Day 5:
chinups - 4 sets 15 reps
lat pulldowns - 4 sets 15 reps
seated rows - 4 sets 15 reps
close grip bench - 4 sets 15 reps
tri extentions - 4 sets 15 reps
push downs - 4 sets 15 reps
dumbbell side bends - 4 sets 15 reps

should i go for 3 sets and 12 reps instead?
does this look like an ok routine?
any help is appreciated

Here's how my routine looks

>Day 1: Go to gym to do squats
>Squat racks full. To benchpress.
>Day 2: Go to gym to deadlift
>No floor space. Do squats.

And so on.

Replacing a pull like row with a curl is treating it as a main lift not an accessory lift.

Try this
A.
Ohp, chin up, squat
Shoulder raise, or shrug, or calf work, whatever.

B.
Bench, Row, deadlift
Curl

You can have accessory plug ins (I recommend against doing so) and not treat them as main lifts

Superior programming.
Also the order I do the exercises.

Day A:
Squats 3x5
Chest Flyes 3 x 5
Incline dumbbell chest press 3 x 5
Decline Cable Flyes 3x5
Standing Dumbbell shoulder press 3x5
Skullcrushers 3x5
Lateral side raises to failure.
Go Home

Day B.
Deadlifts 3x5
Rowing High grip 3x5, then Low grip 3x5
Lat pull-downs 3x5, lat-isolation machine 2x5
Shrugs 3 x 5
Russian Twists holding dumbbell 3x12
Bicep Dumbbell Curls with a twist 3x5
Cheating Barbell curls 3x5
Go home

45 minute uphill sprinting on x-days.

0/10 follow a proven novice routine.
Greyskull if you are afraid ss is a meme
Ss if you aren't retarded
SL if you are retarded
ICF if you are full tard
Reg parks is meh
Bill starrs is basically unimproved ss
Allpro's is overrated but workable if you do 4-6 reps

now we're talking. thanks m8. will try to inculde rows. any recommendations on what variant?

No one ever posts anyone who follows advice like this diligently.
No one who posts stuff like this ever posts themselves.
And the guys in those youtube vids are all on heavy amounts of gear.

Interesting.

Skip bicep curls and skullcrushers

Best Upper/Lower?

How does Lyles GBR look?

What can I do for chest if I have no bench or nowhere for dips?

yeah fuck that meme strength = hypertrophy
For beginner who will make gains on any program, a strength program is probably the best way to spend the first 6 months

See
I used to only do yate's because "lats can't be to big". But now i do both because I realized "the rest of my back needs attention"

So i think both are good.

If you are struggling to hit lats, try yates for a while.

Stand up straight and think about what position your arms are in when you get peak contraction in your lats (for me it is like a cable row position with my thumb at belly button level and my elbows tucked back hard)

Try to replicate that position with your yate's rows.

Switch to pull ups instead of of chin ups and pendlay instead of yate's when you want to focus more on upper back (lower traps and such)

Exactly the threshold for adaptation is so retardedly low that any increase in volume (setsxrepsxLOAD) leads to near maximal progressive overload.
It is only when strength progression is no longer consistent that you need to change other variables to consistently progressively overload the muscles.

Novices are too quick to try and imitate how the elite trains, without looking at how that SAME elite person trains novices.

Tl;dr: put your 3x5s in, kiddies. You will thank me 6 months later

U/L are for intermediates/advanced

Floor press has been my only main lift fir chest and i am 10000% satisfied with the results.

The bar almost touches my chest (at least after I retract my scapula) anyways as i am a barrel chested stubby limbed manlet.

10/10

Forgot do add; I also do rotatory cuff exercises, something I see is COMPLETELY lacking here for EVERYBODY.

>Enjoy shoulder pain

Seconded

Yeah, Lyle knows his stuff and U/L splits are always fun to run. Doing it myself and finding it a pleasure.

If you can ohp .9xbw you have stronk rotator cuff, fagbitch.

you DL 550kg? holy fucking shit user that's impressive

You think eric helms is on gear??!?
Pic is 6 months of gains

Pull-ups & Skull-crushes 3X5 every bench day.

clean ya fucking mirror cunt

Pull ups are way too taxing an accessory lift, and will interfere with row and chin progression.
Skullcrushers are imo unnecessary until intermediate level (if ever)

This isn't my first rodeo, been on 8 months of SS.

I was just wondering if I could do OHP also 3-4x6-8 or is it too tiring? If so then I'll do:
Mon:
Bench 3-4x6-8
ohp 2-3x10-12

Fri:
OHP 3-4x6-8
bench 2-3x10-12

>working triceps is unnecessary

>world record deadlift

Nice job man

Do that, don't do 3 sets of both every upper day.

Beginner here, doing PPL. Could you evaluate my push and pull days? I do this 6 days a week.

Sunday: Push
Monday; legs
Tues: Pull
Wednesday: Rest
Thursday: Push
Friday: legs
Saturday: pull

Push:
Bench 5x5
Shrugs 3x10
Tricep Closed-Grip Press (DB): 3x12
Flys 3x10
Lateral Raises 3x10
pushups

Pull
Lateral Pull Down
Cabel Rows
Curls
Hammer Curls
DB Rows
Assisted Pullups

I maintained all summer but was biking a lot so I lost some gains. I'm starting a new LP, going to try Greyskull but with accessories.

AxBxCxx (don't always take the double rest day)

A
3x5+ Press/Bench alternating
3x5+ Weighted chin (press day) / Rows (bench day)
3x5+ Squat

B
3x5+ Press/Bench alternating
3x5+ Weighted chin (press day) / Rows (bench day)
1x5 Deadlift

C
3x5+ Press/Bench alternating
3x5+ Weighted chin (press day) / Rows (bench day)
3x5+ Squat

My accessories are
Lat raises on press days (3x10ish)
Light CG Bench/Inc DB kind of whenever i think i need to or want to
Curls when i do chinups generally (2 or 3 sets)
behind the head skullcrushers on bench day (2 or 3 sets)

I also have the occasional rest day where i will just do some bodyweight stuff.

bump

do phraks greyskull with rows

Stats - 186cm/~77kg, 45/62.5/87.5/127.5 on 5x5
Been lifting for two months exactly.
I want to isolate my arms a little and add more triceps work plus some additional lifts for building chest and shoulders.
For the past month or so I've been doing this bullshit I came up with, consisting of excersises I find fun to do on top of Stronglifts.

A (the deadlift day):
Skullcrushers 4x10
Cable pull with that ropey thing 3x12
Hammer curl 3x10 + drop set
Chin up 3xF
Lat raise 3x10
Barbell curl 4x8

B (the bench day):
Inclined sit ups 3x17
Inclined smith machine bp 3x10
DB flys 3x12
DB incline/flat bench 3x10

The routine seems stupid as I am typing it already and takes pretty long to do (i don't mind spending more time at the gym, but I'd like to spend it effectively).
Any tips? Thanks in advance

Do me a solid Veeky Forums. I need an intermediate routine for strength training. Is what I'm doing any good? Maybe I should do a split? I don't really know what I'm doing.

I did SS for 6 months or so and then 5 months of this program a gym PT made for me.
I find it difficult because it's pretty long so even with 90 minutes I often don't finish everything.
Some exercises like OHP are really high rep but I don't understand why. I mostly want to get strong and improve physique, not endurance.

I increase weight set by set and average about 75% PR, usually doing one PR set last.

Mon
Squat (4x4/5x8)
Bench (5x5/4x8)
DL (3x5/4x6)
Chins (4x5/4x12)
Curls short rest (3x10/3x12)

Weds
Squat (5x6/4x8)
CG Bench (5x5/5x8)
OHP (3x15/4x12)
Rows (4x8/6x12)
Push-downs short rest (5x15/3x12)

Fri
Squat (6x6/4x6)
Bench/CG Bench 4x8
DL from blocks 4x4
Leg press short rest (3x8/4x12)
1-arm row (5x8/3x16)

>If you can ohp .9xbw you have stronk rotator cuff, fagbitch.

Maybe I don¤t have strong R-cuffs. *cries*
Beginners should train them, just a little

this routine makes everyone butthurt lol
protocol is to workout as often as possible switching between blocks, take a rest day when needed

Took this from Practical Programming and am liking it so far. Goals are mainly to get my lifts up and stay motivated to train, which the smaller lifts help with by adding some variation to the big four. SetsxReps

MON:
Bench 5x5/5x3/5x1 (alternate weekly)
Close grip bench 3x8-12
Triceps isolation 3x10-15

TUES
Squat 5x5/5x3/5x1 (alternate weekly)
Good mornings 3x8-12
Lat pull down or chins 3x8-12

THUR
Press 5x1/5x5/5x3 (alternate weekly)
Dips (weighted) 3x8-12

i just do these

Why chin ups over pull ups?

Thats a rotator cuff exercise

Hits biceps too and are usually easier for beginners to do.

i'm currently 165lbs at 5'11" maybe low teens BF%

I do this modified Texas Method with accessories. I added facepulls on pull day and pushups on push day for dat dere serratus. I also hit the track 3 times a week and sprint because I'm on the track team.

I didn't really like the texas method that much. Great for increasing your squat, terrible for everything else.

I've been noticing this too, except it's also helped a lot with diddies. Any intermediate program you found to be better?

Pull ups hit biceps too. I understand the easier part, I did them too when I started out, but why would you start weighted chin ups if you can do pull ups. I feel like pull ups are one of the core exercises in my routine, hitting my biceps, shoulders and back.

How do you guys feel about pull ups? I even prefer them over rows.

I liked (modified versions) of 5/3/1 better.

I like pull ups but when it comes to the back I hit it with everything but the kitchen sink so I do pretty much everything. Pull ups, one armed barbell rows, lat pulldowns, seated cable row and T-bar rows.

thanks
>Fuck the dips and tricep pushdowns
dips are one of the best exercises you can do and I also happen to really like them.
what's a pec MRV?
arent yates with underhand? my bicep has been fatigues for a while so I'm afraid to snappiti snap it.
Also I prefer to hit the lats, for the traps I got deads and shrugs
because I can do like 3
Was thinking of switching to pullups since my right bicep always gives feels fatigues the day after chinups

MRV = maximum recoverable volume. Basically do as much stuff you can without overtraining.

ICF is goat, don't spread lies.

chinups and curls on same day seems overkill.
I'd do curls since you already hit the lats on rows

In upper lower I'm looking at, lat pulldowns are used instead of pull-ups? Is it because they are better for building size of late?

what could I do instead of dips?

Ýou can easily do both if you want to. The back can take a beating.

5/3/1 for 4 bigs. will usually add in anywhere from 2-8 volume sets depending on how strong I feel

then 3-4 isos of the compound being trained for weaknesses and aesthetics.

sometimes I LISS, but now I fill those spots with karate/bag work.

Chest work that isn't benching, dips or floor press? Literally no idea what to do.

Squat
Front squat
Leg press
Glute kickbacks
Cable pull throughs
Romanian deadlifts
Calf raises
Bicep curls
Triceps
Back extensions

I go every other day and try to do most of this. I haven't started a routine yet unfortunately, waiting until I move next week and go to a better gym. I'm a grill, that's why it's almost all lower body. I'm going to actually train the rest of my body when I'm at a better gym.

Off topic but I found two gyms I'm going to check out, one is a powerlifting gym and one specializes in oly lifting. I'm leaning more towards the oly lifting because I want to be strong AND explosive. What do you guys think? I'm pretty dyel looking right now but my legs are fairly strong.

Pushups, flyes, pullover, stuff with cables?

I'm thinking about switching from my PPLxPPLx to fullbody. I only work out with dumbbells. I'm thinking about doing:

F
4x6 DB Flat Bench Press
4x6 Weighted Pullups
4x6 DB Stiff Legged Deadlifts
4x6 Walking Lunges

r8?

Chin ups take the lats through full range of motion.

Even with the biceps helping, you are still progressively overloading the lats with weighted chin ups.

This make them a better general strength training exercise for biceps and lats.

Starting Strength with more pulling:

Sunday

>Lat Pulldown 3x5
>Squats 3x5
>Press / Bench Press 3x5
>Deadlift 1x5

Tuesday

>Squats 3x5
>Press / Bench Press 3x5
>Deadlift 1x5
>Band assisted chin ups

Thursday

>Squats 3x5
>Press / Bench Press 3x5
>Deadlift 1x5
>Band Assisted chin ups.

Lat Pulldown is done with a 45 degree lean, overhand, with slightly wider than shoulder with hand placement.

I have 5 tensions of bands for chin ups. Every time I hit ten reps, I use a band with less assistance.

I use Sun/Tue/Thu because the lat Pulldown adds too much time for weekday workouts.

Huh how can the pulldown add that much time? You only need to rest 60-90 secs for assistance work.

I treat it like a main lift with warm up sets and 3x5 work sets. Each workset is 2-5 minutes rest.
